Leonid Meteor Shower Peaks This Weekend

The annual Leonid meteor shower arrives this weekend, so prepare to be ... not quite dazzled. As it happens, the full moon also arrives this weekend, which is going to cut down on the number of streaks you see, reports USA Today. The Leonids' peak comes in the predawn hours of Sunday, but both Universe Today and Earth & Sky suggest taking a gander up after midnight tonight, tomorrow night, and Sunday night. It may not be a light show for the ages, but you've got a decent chance of seeing at least a modest version. (More Leonids stories.)
